Ain't no need-a goin' no further brother
Ain't no need-a goin' no further man
Told you back in forty five,
you had better quit that jive
Ain't no need-a goin' no further man

Ain't no need-a goin' no further brother
Ain't no need-a goin' no further man
You thought you was pretty slick,
takin' everybody's chick
Ain't no need-a goin' no further brother

Ain't no need-a goin' no further brother
Ain't no need-a goin' no further man
You had diamonds and Cadillac cars,
tourin' the world and settin' up bars
Ain't no need-a goin' no further now

Ain't no need-a goin' no further brother
Ain't no need-a goin' no further man
Your money's gone and your health is bad,
all you can tell is the fun you had
Ain't no need-a goin' no further now
No, ain't no need a goin' no further now
